Yang Ye couldn’t understand, but since the Dean implied it and his words earlier had saved his face, providing him with an exit, he coldly hummed, “The Master is absolutely right.”

Seeing this, Dean Gu chuckled softly, saying, “Yet, demonstrating such cunning amongst country girls is remarkable indeed.”

Yang Ye scrunched his brows, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Dean Gu turned to He Zhanggui, “Shopkeeper He, there’s nothing further, you can take this girl back.”

He Zhanggui, standing to one side, kept his head down, not daring to breathe too heavily. Upon hearing this, he hastily agreed.

This girl, who even dares reject Prince Wei, is truly terrifying.

A quickening his pace, he strode away swiftly.

Qiao Xiaomai bowed to Yang Ye and Dean Gu, quickly following in small paced steps.

She had heard Yang Ye’s rage clearly, she too found it terrifying!

Only after she had exited the Academy’s main gate, she finally exhaled the breath she’d been holding in.

With complex emotions, Shopkeeper He looked at her, “You really have guts, and a strong will.”

Daring to refuse Prince Wei requires guts.

Rejecting the chance of a lifetime, that’s willpower.

He admired her.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai patted her chest, it wasn’t about being brave, she was scared too just now.

“Let’s go quickly, it’s about to rain.” She said hurriedly heading towards Jiwiju.

Gods above, please allow Dean Gu to persuade Prince Wei not to trouble her anymore!

Elsewhere, as Qiao Xiaomai left the compound, Yang Ye immediately asked, “Master, what was the meaning of your earlier actions?”

Dean Gu picked up his teacup, gently sipping at the tea. After a moment, he leisurely replied, “Jiwiju and Zuixian Building offered cold jelly noodles and tofu pudding recipes to the emperor, which Qiao Xiaomai, a country girl, created. Upon learning this, the Emperor sent a message to me, asking me to take care of her.”

“Just because of two recipes?” Yang Ye was somewhat surprised, his phoenix eyes widening a bit.

“Yes. Although these two recipes seem insignificant, they involve sweet potatoes and soybeans.”

Although Emperor Yongan didn’t explicitly say so, Dean Gu could guess his intentions.

Sweet potatoes have high yields. Ever since it appeared, Daqi has never experienced a famine.

But eating too many sweet potatoes can cause heartburn and bloating, so it can’t be a staple food like wheat and rice.

Now that sweet potatoes have been turned into cold noodles, although the method hasn’t been publicized, Jiwiju needs a lot of sweet potatoes, and the cold noodles it sells are cheap enough for the common people to afford. So, it is beneficial to them.

As for soybeans, it is grown everywhere, but due to limited ways of cooking, it can’t be a staple food.

Now there’s a new way to eat soybeans, although it hasn’t been promoted, but both restaurants will purchase a lot of soybeans, which is also a good thing for the common people.

Both things combined are enough for Emperor Yongan to show some goodwill towards Qiao Xiaomai.

After listening to Dean Gu’s explanation, Yang Ye’s handsome face was still gloomy. He slammed the table, saying angrily, “But she dare reject me!”

He understood the reasoning, but she, a mere country girl, dared to reject him!

In his twenty odd years of life, he had never felt so humiliated!

And he had never lost face like this before!

“Your Highness, why lose your temper over a country girl? Come, come, let’s eat.” Dean Gu coaxed.

“I can’t swallow this anger!” Yang Ye stared at the dazzling spread of delicious food on the table, wanting to eat, but also feeling resentful.

Since his childhood, he was pampered by the retired Emperor Yongan, the Empress and the Crown Prince. Everything always went his way for twenty years, but today in Bailu Town, he had lost face to a country girl.

He glared at the tempting braised pork on the table, his enchanting phoenix eyes squinting slightly. Suddenly an idea struck him, “Master, do you think she did it on purpose?”

“Did what on purpose?”

“Intentionally refusing me to attract my attention! It’s the strategy of feigning weakness to entice the enemy!” Yang Ye couldn’t help but slam the table again.

It must be exactly like that!
